Mario Kart World 150cc Grand Prix guide
Posted on 4 days ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch 2 | 0 comments
Today, we’re going over some tips and tricks on how to more easily win in Mario Kart World’s Grand Prix mode with a new guide.
Mario Kart World is available now on Nintendo Switch 2, and players have noticed that Grand Prix mode isn’t quite as easy this time around. One of the game’s main goals is to earn three stars on every Grand Prix cup on 150cc – when you do that, the 50cc and 100cc automatically earn gold stars even if you’ve never played them. That being said, the CPUs on 150cc are particularly challenging. They’re fast, they drift, they take shortcuts, and they wait until the best moment to use powerful items. This makes 150cc Grand Prix races surprisingly challenging – much more so than previous titles in the series (or at least recent ones).
